We had a mobile guy here who was pretty badass. He retired though so I started looking for someone else to refer customers to. 4 years ago, the firestone plant parking lot had about 200 cars covered with white overspray from Citgo. They brought them all to us.

I called around and somebody suggested Belts Plus in Lake Charles. I didn't know they had a detail shop in the back. I talked to the owner and subcontracted all the work to them. They did a bang up job and now I send everyone to them. Their prices can not be beat.

My friend who runs that one I linked just got his own covered trailer so he is now 100% mobile. He has a 125 gallon water tank, Honda quiet generator, mounted pressure washer, and a mounted air compressor. It's quite the setup.

I'm sure you've noticed that professional mobile detailers completely blow body shop detail work out of the water. I've seen numerous vehicles get gutted by body shops. My brother's own paint job that I corrected to 75% was butchered after going to the body shop to replace a dented door. I told them not to touch the paint but they did it anyway.

But, by no means am I implying that your shop does any of this. It's just quite frustrating to see buffer trails on a formerly clear paint job.
